You may have to lose once to figure out how the game Drench works, but then it’s a lot of fun! Select your next color to make your paint splotch bigger, and try to cover the entire floor in paint. You only have a certain number of moves for each level.
I’m hooked on this simple yet effective game. Try it.
Pretty much everyone involved in this film & album has gone onto great things. Prince is a powerhouse in the music industry and at the time was at his creative peak.
This film centers around Prince and his story but is stretched out into an 80’s funk/pop filled musical drama that captures the music revolution that was taking place at the time. Not a film for everyone, but I enjoyed it immensely. I think I liked it because it was a time when it was safe to be strange, and music was exciting — Prince let it be:
Purple Rain is a 1984 musical film directed by Albert Magnoli and written by Magnoli and William Blinn. Prince stars in this movie, which was developed to showcase his particular talents. The film earned US$68.4 million (2009 dollars US$140,017,340) at the box office and became an instant cult classic.
“The Kid” (Prince) is an aspiring and talented, but troubled Minneapolis musician with a difficult home life. He meets a singer named Apollonia (Apollonia Kotero), and they become involved in an untidy romance.
Prince is trying not to repeat the pattern of his abusive alcoholic father; played by Clarence Williams III (famous at the time for his role as Lincoln Hayes on The Mod Squad); and keep his band, The Revolution, and his relationship with Apollonia, together. His main antagonist is fellow musician Morris Day and his group The Time.
The music and talent behind it all make this film truly amazing. Go get it! It is packed with loads of great special features such as 80s interviews and rare Prince music videos.
With Diseny’s aquisition of Marvel properties, I am hoping we don’t ever actually see anything like this. I mean it’s good for a laugh, but I like many others, am weeping a little on the inside…
As most of you have probably heard, Disney agreed to purchase Marvel for a whopping $4 billion dollars. We were excited to hear about this promising partnership, but were especially interested in what type of babies the Disney and Marvel characters would make. After some intensive research and breeding, here are the results.
Some of these are ok. Some are, err…

Yet another reason why Japan is cool: they have Gundam bars! Drinks named after Gundam characters, that’s over 300 models!
Since its opening in June this year, Axis has been gaining popularity among fans for its display of nearly 300 plastic models and cocktails named after popular characters.
Worst-case-scenario, someone gets drunk and plays the models like dominos HA!
Fans of the TV anime series “Mobile Suit Gundam” gather at bar “Axis” in Kobe’s Chuo Ward. Since its opening in June this year, Axis [dubbed the “Gundam Bar”] has been gaining popularity among fans for its display of nearly 300 plastic models and cocktails named after popular characters.

The Prince Of Darkness is finally knighted. Although I was under the assumption he always had knighthood:
On October 30th, actor Christopher Lee was knighted by Prince Charles on behalf of the Queen for his services to drama and charity. It couldn’t happen to a more awesome actor.
Lee’s 60+ film and theater career covers every genre, and by all accounts he is incredibly nice, humble, and very likely the pretentious actor of his immense stature that ever was. This has been long overdue. Congratulation, Sir Christopher! [via The British Monarchy]
